Learning Objectives(CME/CNE/CPE)

● Upon completion of this educational activity, participants should be able to:- Screen for hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection according to the

recommendations from the American Association for the Study of Liver Diseases (AASLD) and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC)

- Appropriately select antiviral HCV treatment strategies according to the recommendations from the AASLD/IDSA guidelines

- Manage safety and tolerability problems with antiviral HCV agents, including side effect, drug-drug interactions, and resistance

- Evaluate new agents being investigated for HCV therapy to optimize information-based decision making about therapy

Global Burden of Disease Study 2010:Causes of Death From Chronic Liver Disease

● In 2010, HIV-related mortality in the EU/EFTA countries never reached those of HCV or HBV

● HCV is the predominant cause of death due to blood-borne viruses in the EU/EFTA

- Approximately 10 times to that of HIV/AIDS

- Greater than HBV and HIV combined

● Majority of HCV-related mortality due to cirrhosis

Impact of Comorbid Conditions on HCV Treatment Decisions (2002-2012)

● Retrospective cohort study (Kaiser Permanente Southern California) (n=32,283 HCV patients with prescription benefits)

- Received HCV therapy (17%)

• PegIFN + RBV + telaprevir or boceprevir

● Comorbid conditions (relative or absolute contraindications to IFN-based therapy): 50%

- 15% of these patients were treated

● Factors significantly associated with receiving therapy (P<0.01)

- Younger age (<45 versus >65 years and 45-65 versus >65 years), male gender, presence of cirrhosis, HIV coinfection, NAFLD/NASH, depression, prior liver transplant

COSMOS Subgroup Analysis:HCV Genotype 1, METAVIR F3-F4

● SVR12 rates were similar regardless of prior treatment exposure or baseline METAVIR score

● Relapse (n=3)

- All were genotype 1a, undetectable at EOT, and in 12-week arm (n=2 with RBV)

- At time of relapse there were no sofosbuvir RAVs

• Simeprevir RAVs: D166E, R155K

● Sofosbuvir + simeprevir + RBV was safe and well tolerated

- Discontinuations due to adverse events (1.1%)

- Higher incidence of adverse events and laboratory abnormalities in the RBV-containing arms

- Most common adverse events

• Fatigue (38%), headache (20%), nausea (17%), anemia (13%), pruritus (13%)

- Grade 3/4 laboratory abnormalities

• Hyperbilirubinemia (8%)

• Hemoglobin (1%) Lawitz E, et al. J Hepatol. 2014;60(suppl 1):S524. Abstract O165.
